Summerland Christmas Train

Thanks to the Kettle Valley Railway for organizing the Summerland Christmas Train again this year. It will be up and running until December 23rd, but all tickets are already sold out. Saturday was a great evening and a fresh new experience, and kudos to all the employees and volunteers, they were very courteous and made sure everyone had a wonderful experience aboard the train.
